First Time Experiencing: Gojira | The Heaviest Matter Of The Universe REACTION! 

Flying Whales Reaction Ready to go - 500 likes and I drop it 🔥🔥

You have stumbled upon the greatest metal band of this era.

Art of Dying. This band is definitely a mood. Super talented.

The laugh, that's when you know a band is good. You have to hold in the emotions. I remember I cried when I first heard this song.

Gift of Guilt Born in Winter Toxic Garbage Island Oroborus Vacuity Silvera

3:18.. the face of every metal head listening to a banging breakdown

The "Heaviest Matter Of The Universe" doesn't have anything to do with the tone of the music and certainly isn't about aggression or anger. The album is a concept chronicling humanity's return to an abandoned Earth from another star system. THMOTU is about the effect that faster than light travel might have on the human body and mind. A physical object that travels at the speed of light or faster has an infinite mass making the narrator the heaviest matter in the universe. Remember that when you listen to "Flying Whales". Oh, and I'd recommend "Toxic Garbage Island" (Live from Hellfest 16'), "The Cell" (official) and "Born In Winter" (official).

You have to head down the Gojira rabbit hole...there is a lot to explore

Please check out Flying Whales, Silvera and Stranded! So glad you're checking out Gojira!

Sweet Jesus yes. Gojira is the shit! Definitely check out Gift of Guilt, Where Dragons Dwell (live), Vaucity, and/or Art of Dying. Literally anything from Gojira is incredible 🤘🏻

This is even more intense live. Mario is a beast on drums.

What about "Where Dragons Dwell" live at Hellfest? Best live performance by a mile.

‘The gift of guilt’!!

I love your honest reactions👌

You didn't mention anything about the lyrics, which are one of their strongest sides, and through them you actually realise that aggression is only on the surface and there's much more underneath

Love this track! I remember feeling physically winded the first time I heard that opening! 🤘🎶

Try maybe "Born In Winter" (more atmospheric) and "Silvera" (more melodic and accessible).

Yes my Guy !!!! Maybe try some Opeth Reverie / Harlequin Forest next

Flying Whals is great! L'enfant Sauvage is also an awesome song. Very emotional.

Maybe 'Born in WInter' and 'Flying Whales'!

Stranded is the one for you bro 🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥

Fuck yeah. Gojira. A gigantic heavy hammer with a very thin covering of velvet.

Hell yeah Gojira 🤘 Stranded and Silvera are great songs

Real excited to see this video man. Loved your tool reactions and gojira's my second favorite band after tool. This is gonna be a good one

Gojira was my introduction to metal and I can certainly say that no band has made me want to thrash my head around like gojira does

Please More Gojira! Flying Whales, Stranded, and Silvera are great starters please!!!!

After Flying Whales you should listen to The Gift of Guilt, it's a very good song to start off this band off with

Crowbar - to build a mountain

Gojira is one of the only bands that can hold my attention like Tool. So glad you gave them a chance!

Gojira _ BACKBONE!!!! Their best song for me. First song on this album

Hell yes. Finished Tool and now you've moved on to my other favorite band! Looking forward to this.

Their newer stuff is more structured prog with cleaner vocals than their early death metal days. I love all of it but if you want something more daily approachable for you look into their album Magma and the one before that (cant spell it off hand)

Flying whales is definitely easier to listen to. You should check out Krigsgaldr by Heilung. They use animal skin drums, Tibetan throat singing and even use spears, Shields and human bones as instruments! Their music is otherworldly and beautiful and you absolutely need to check them out.

“Ocean planet” for a good time

Brotha,you hopped into the deep,heavy end with this one! This is a full on aural assault that introduces itself with enuff force to obliterate yer housing estate rather than just knock on the door! As mentioned here already, Ill just say too,that while Gojira's songs in general crush with intent and intensity, their last album, "Magma" -whilst still heavy, has more melodic, proper singing,and lighter, emotive shades and textures that I defo tink will initially impact more to ya. Then, if settled into that, the more Heavier Matter like this song is gonna sound even more accessable. "Stranded" -thats a really fecking good song. Either way lad, between more Gojira,Rammstein and perhaps more delving back into classic vaults with Zeppelin, these reactions and reasonings are great.

YES GOJIRA!!! Silvera, Toxic Garbage Island, Flying Whales, Stranded, Born In Winter, The Gift of Guilt would be good reactions

I like that you actually talk about after and voice your opinion and not just sit and listen them end the video like most reaction videos love your stuff

Hell ya more gojira.. any of their stuff is amazing 🤘🏻

So heavy you have to giggle!!!

Look at you now, Drew 😂🤘👍

'Silvera' and 'Stranded' by these guys deserve a listen to as well

Dude you got to react to Alice in chains Nutshell.

Gojira is on of my favorite bands period, but their heavier music (like this one) is great for almost distracting myself from a bad mood or whatever. It's so all-encompassing that is leaves very little room for other thoughts.

Waiting for you to do these guys. Quality metal here

YES we want to see more Gojira because they are freakin amazing

Explosia...!!!!! That song bounces so fucking hard...my person favorite 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Rarely anyone ever mentions the lyrics but these lines give me chills and bring me to tears. I don’t know if it’s the execution of the lyrics or just the way it speaks to me. Perhaps it is both! Amazing, crushing track in all the ways

Please do not forget Gojira - the gift of guilt (live at brixton) mate

It's funny to go back and watch your early reactions to Gojira! Shows how much can change when you spend more time listening to a band over just a single listen - there becomes a point where you can't go back to a pre-Gojira life.

These guys are amazing live

Glad to see that Vin and Sori did a lyric video on this song.. so epic man

Like some others are saying, Gift of Guilt (live at Brixton) is amazing!

1:43 their drummer, Mario Duplantier, is an absolute beast 🤘 his brother, Joe Duplantier, is the vocalist/guitarist.

heard this song for the first time last week and I'm in love

Gojira - a sight to behold

You definitely have to do Flying Whales. One of their best songs

Even more epic live.

Born in Winter is a great contrast to what you'd expect from Gojira

L’enfant sauvage is extremely heavy and groovy with still being super accessible! I’d recommend that one for the obligatory next gojira song ;)

One of the best Metal bands out there at the moment. So many songs in the comments below are worth reacting to.

Gojira's 'The heaviest matter of the universe' IS the heaviest matter of the universe. By far my favorite band. First time on this channel. Needed this today. Thanks mate! Another personal favorit is Primordial - Lain With The Wolf.

Gojiras awesome. Love those boys \m/

no matter how many times i hear that song it still fits the title perfectly.

I've seen/met Gojira live several times and it's just freaking magical... they're so down to earth. Great dudes!

Liked before I even watched because this song fucking rules!

Oh how I wish I could listen to this for the first time again

“The gift of guilt” and “Born in winter” for sure! Seen them with Slipknot and they’re now one of my favorites!! It’s kinda sad I discovered them soo late.

Animals as fuckin Leaders Drew!

Pissed off? This makes me want to skip around and dance lol 😆 💃

That's the best ringtone I've ever had.

YES

Nice reaction!!! Car Bomb - Dissect Yourself

Was stoked to see you reacting to Gojira. You should do some Within the Ruins, Ataxia 1-4....bad ass songs and no vocals. But definitely recommend Gift of Guilt if you do more Gojira.

Definitely check out The Gift of Guilt from Gojira as well. My personal favorite of theirs.

Gojira - The Gift of Guilt, live at Brixton Academy London.

I don't like that people associate metal with anger, it's not always the case. People that get that feeling don't understand how to process the charge it gives. That being said if you are looking for something with more groove, Shooting Star off Magma album will suit you. For more of the heavy, I recommend Death of Me from The Link album. Nice video man, cheers.

Gojira! Yay. Add Silvera to your list!

oh my god finnaly i love you

Oroborus has some amazing guitar that you should check out, if you're interested in catchy riffs.

More more moreeeeeee gojiraaa

Damn good song.

Gojira esoteric surgery is a gem

Gojira is great music for the gym!!!

Dude, react to Opeth and Katatonia!!! I hope do you like it

GOJIRA means GODZILLA(which they had as original band name) the label was having issues as well as copyright right problem.. so they changed to GOJIRA and its an old japenese dialect.. they are one of my top 10 favorite bands for many years now.. have seen them 3x.. amazing shows and stage presence.. and they play SO LOUD and FLAWLESS.. you really picked a banger as your first GOJIRA reaction.. they are a very organic metal band.. and another great French metal band to check out KLONE-BLACK DAYS

Another possible deep dive for you. This album is one the greatest concept albums of all time, in my opinion. Concerning their views on the environment, along their experiences with astral and etheric projection.

got tickets to see gojira and deftones all the way in sept. here in texas

Gojira is fucking amazing live! I heard them live at Aftershock last year and they were the best sounding band there! Also fun fact: they are from France! You definitely need to check them out some more. Try Stranded, Flying Whales, L'Enfaunt Sauvage, and Silveira!

You truly are an OUTSIDER if you haven't experienced "The Outsider" by APC ;)

Gojira _ gift of guilt ( live at bixton ) Gojira is one of the top metall bands !

Hey dude, loving the reviews, 'Gojira - Backbone'.

Yessssss! Dude, you honestly should just do a discography tour like you did with Tool. They're another band that has so much to offer that you really can't pick one song. This is my second favorite band next to Tool.

Hell yeah Gojira kick all the ass in the world

Gojira have a sick video for 'All the Tears' if you can find it. That song is brutal!

There's some great live Gojira videos on RU-vid. I highly recommend Hellfest 2013 or Brixton Academy. Either of those will definitely grow your appreciation of the band. I checked out the Hellfest performance on a whim and watched the whole thing. That's how I got into them.

elements of this reminds me of old sepultura with max

the art of dying is my favorite track by them, worth the 10 minutes of listening

How about giving Fear Factory "Mezmerize" a go? It will melt your face off haha

Drew you gotta check out the heaviest matter of the universe live Mario is one hell of a drummer🤘🤘

It is literally the heaviest matter in the universe.
